DRAFT: feat: make the Appium Inspector openable from command line

Open dpgraham opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Add a feature where you can open Appium Inspector from command line:

Example:

node . --session-file ./sample-session-files/fake.appiumsession

This will open the inspector in the user's default browser and populate the state with the contents of the session file.

TODO: This will require a future pull request that publishes this as an NPM package.

seems like this is including a lot of irrelevant commits and should be rebased on master.

also i'm not entirely sure of the purpose of this change. can't the inspector already be started from the command line (open Inspector.app?)

This is just a draft. The purpose of this is so that you can open the inspector from a client. Something like webdriverio could call debug and then that would open the running session in the inspector.
